My Guest: Alex Fedotoff

Alex Fedotoff is one of the leading Facebook advertising strategists for e-commerce brands. His agency AF MEDIA helps brands to scale massively using results-oriented, direct response advertising. Huffington Post calls him one of the foremost Facebook advertising experts in the world and The Next Web calls him a marketing specialist with one of the highest ROI-producing Facebook formulas amongst advertisers.

 

Pivotal Moments:

Grew up in the Ukraine, where he spent five years getting his masters in economy and accounting, but didn’t find much fulfillment from his learning.
Realized that he could make more money freelancing for people abroad, but didn’t have the skills or knowledge – and nor did he speak English.
Started teaching himself SEO, Google Ads and Social Media management using online tutorials.
Created personal profiles on various online freelancing platforms such as Elance (now Upwork) and started getting jobs.
Agreed to take on every job that came his way, figuring out how to do the jobs as he went along.
Decided that he wanted to focus on one specific area and chose Facebook Ads.
Built up a Facebook community (which currently has over 26,000 people) to help people who needed advice, but that community eventually became the medium for the bigger clients to reach him.
Slowly picked up momentum, getting bigger and better jobs, until he reached his current stage where he has seven employees and a thriving Facebook Ads business.
